Presidential Adviser Lalith Weeratunga says that the World Health Organization (WHO) will provide vaccines to Sri Lanka within a legal framework. He said the responsibility for such vaccines would not be borne by the company that manufactured them.
The cost of the relevant stock of vaccines to be supplied to Sri Lanka will be borne by the United Nations.
